Erostratus |
On the night of July 21st, 356 BC |
I, Erostratus, burned to the ground |
One of the wonders of the world |
The fabulous temple of Artemis |
Here in the great port of Ephesus |
I did it to get famous |
To thwart me |
The authorities stupidly forbade my name |
On pain of death |
Ever to be mentioned again |
The fools! |
That was my guarantee |
Of immortality |
Some tool in the 21st century |
Even as we speak is singing about me! |
And in your day I have many imitators and admirers |
My name endures, said Sartre |
«Like a black diamond» |
